Netsh commands for AAAA

You can use commands in the Netsh AAAA context to show and set the configuration of the authentication, authorization, accounting, and auditing (AAAA) database used by the Internet Authentication Service (IAS) and the Routing and Remote Access service. The AAAA database is also known as the IAS database (Ias.mdb). The primary use of commands in the Netsh AAAA context is to:

  • Export the configuration of one IAS server, including registry keys and the IAS database (ias.mdb), as a Netsh script using either the dump command or one of the show commands.

  • Import the configuration to another IAS server using the netsh exec command, and a Netsh script that contains the set config command.

You can run these commands from the Windows Server 2003 family command prompt or from the command prompt for the Netsh AAAA context. For these commands to work at the Windows Server 2003 family command prompt, you must type netsh aaaa before typing commands and parameters as they appear in the syntax below. There might be functional differences between Netsh context commands on Windows 2000 and the Windows Server 2003 family.

For more information on Netsh, see Netsh overview and Enter a netsh context.

Netsh AAAA command reference

  • dump

  • set config

  • show clients

  • show config

  • show connection_request_policies

  • show logging

  • show remote_access_policies

  • show server_settings

  • show version

dump

Displays the configuration of the IAS database file (Ias.mdb) as a Netsh command script.

Syntax

dump

Remarks

  • The dump command displays the Netsh command script that you can use to duplicate the configuration of the server running IAS or the Routing and Remote Access service on which the command is executed. The Netsh command script contains the configuration of the IAS server, including the registry keys and database file (Ias.mdb), in a compressed text format as a large data block. This large data block is used by the set config command within the script to import the configuration of a saved data block into an existing IAS database on the same or another computer using the netsh exec command. To save the Netsh command script to a file, type: **netsh aaaa show config >**Path\File.txt

  • The dump command is not supported on computers running Windows 2000 server.

set config

Configures the IAS server and IAS database (Ias.mdb) with the registry keys and database imported from the specified data block.

Syntax

set config [type={server_settings | clients | connection_request_policies | logging | remote_access_policies] **blob=**DataBlock}

Parameters
  • ****blob=DataBlock
    Required. Specifies the file that contains the configuration of the IAS server, including registry keys and IAS database (Ias.mdb), in a compressed text format as output by the dump or show commands.
  • type=
    Specifies the kind of data that you want to import from the DataBlock to the local server configuration.
  • server_settings
    Specifies that the server configuration settings are imported from the DataBlock to the local server. The imported settings include server Description, system event log settings, registry keys, and ports that are used specifically for the IAS service.
  • clients
    Specifies that the settings for RADIUS clients, as viewed in the IAS console, are imported to the local server from DataBlock.
  • connection_request_policies
    Specifies that the IAS settings for Connection Request Processing, including Connection Request Policies and Remote RADIUS server Groups, are imported to the local server from DataBlock.
  • logging
    Specifies that the IAS settings for Remote Access Logging are imported to the local server from DataBlock.
  • remote_access_policies
    Specifies that the IAS settings for Remote Access Policies are imported to the local server from DataBlock.
Remarks

  • Running the set config command manually is not supported. This command is used only within a Netsh command script that is created by using the dump or show commands.

  • To view the version of the IAS database on which the Netsh script is being run, use the show version command. Scripts older than those created with Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition; Windows Server 2003, Enterprise Edition; and Windows Server 2003, Datacenter Edition are supported.

  • The configuration of IAS servers running on products in the Windows 2000 server family can be imported into products in the Windows Server 2003 family with set config. The reverse, however, is not possible.
